I would strongly recommend using bittorrent to download the DVD ISO. It's likely to be faster than a download from a single site, checksums each 1MB chunk as it downloads it (redownloaing if necessary) and has no problems resuming a download after a disconnect.


If you really need to use a mirror, curl will handle large files. The latest FC2 errata version of wget is also supposed to be able to handle large files.
